If you don't have all the pieces you need to achieve what it is you want to achieve, it could stop you in your tracks— but it shouldn't. Jason has a mantra that will help you move forward, even when you feel like you can't.

Today Nicole and Jason break down all things introductions— how to ask for one, how NOT to ask for one, and what to say if someone asks for an intro you don't want to give. They give you the steps you should take every time you make an intro, and they start by talking about the weirdest intro Jason has ever been a part of.

We're all waiting for someone— for a reply, an approval, an answer— we're all on the edge of our seats about something. And it's making us... nuts. You desperately want to know what that someone is thinking, and today, Jason tells you. Plus, he gives his tip to nip this worry in the bud.

Jason just collaborated with a bona fide jerk. Should he say anything? Nicole helps Jason map out his next steps, and gives you the framework to decide when to push back.

When things go wrong, here’s a question to ask yourself: “Did I just run an accidental experiment?”

The answer might be yes. And once you realize this, you’ll feel a lot better. Today, Jason shares why it works — starting with a big mistake he made.

A re-run of the time Jason told Nicole a story of a very public failure. He explains what happened, how he panicked, and ultimately, what advice he got from a friend that made him feel better.

Today, Jason is sharing something different and special. His wife, Jennifer Miller, has a new podcast — a true-crime story about mistaken identity, impossible choices, and one man who goes to prison for his twin brother's crime. It's called Blood Will Tell. Here, you'll find the first episode. You can find the rest by subscribing to Blood Will Tell wherever you listen to Help Wanted

Here's a throwback to before Nicole was a mom! How do you talk to your kids about work—without making them think their worth depends on it? In this episode, Jason and Nicole tackle one of the trickiest balancing acts of modern parenting: explaining your career in a way that’s honest but not overwhelming, inspiring but not pressure-packed. They explore how to navigate your child's questions about what you do, how to help them dream big in a world where industries are constantly evolving, and how to set boundaries around work without making them feel like they’re second place. If you’ve ever felt the guilt of closing your laptop after bedtime—or struggled to explain why “Zoom” isn’t a game—this one’s for you.

Jason reaches into the mailbag and selects two questions. One from someone about just starting out, one from someone figuring out what comes next.

When the check comes at the end of a business dinner, who should pay? The bigger company? Does that even matter? These are the questions on our Executive Producer Morgan's mind after an awkward fumble at the end of a business dinner with a big tab. Jason gives a framework you can use to assess when you should throw your card down, and what to say if you can't.
